Kilted fortnight holiday in scotland & france

We went to check me in at my B&B the “Creaganterve”. We were greated by Duff, the sheep that thought he was a dog.

Chris had a habit of saying the words, “mint sauce” every time he saw sheep. This was very disconcerning to Willie who would keep a low profile and hung out with Duff at the B&B the next few days.

Checking in with Phyllis the owner and dropping off my bags we went to see one of finest sunsets I’ve ever seen.

There were several times the next couple of days when I thought Chris was going to kill me. It seemed after ever filling meal; Chris set me out to hike up some steep path. Let me tell you every time the reward was a sight well worth the effort.

We passed on a way up a trig point that is used for the British Ordinance Maps. This area is called Dunardry and overlooks Loch Crinan. Below is Chris’s cottage, Crinan and Duntrune. A sight to behold.

Tomorrow: Poltalloch Estates of Chief Robin Malcolm

Not only do I utter the words "mint sauce" I also use the words "horseradish sauce" at the cattle wandering around the roads. Great pictures, great scenery,great place.Of course I may be a wee tad biased!
